The personality show, which is about diversity, visibility and everyday topics, among other things, is shown on both ARD and WDR.
What topics will be the focus of "Salon Simonetti"?
The topics that play an important role at Salon Simonetti touch on the most diverse areas. It's about relationships, about courage, but also about family and the commitment to the queer community.
However, there should not be a purely queer point of view. Instead, "Salon Simonetti" - also by the host himself - is always about thinking outside the box. Among other things, it is also about questioning one's own opinion on a certain topic and dealing with other views.
And to ensure that all this doesn't get too serious, humor also plays an important role at Salon Simonetti. Because of the variety on offer, not only members of the community but also many who feel connected to it will certainly tune in.

Few will doubt that the desire for more tolerance and equal rights will be carried even further into the world via "Salon Simonetti. And there will be no shortage of showbiz and glamour - if only because of Riccardo's personality.

Subsequent editions will include Jochen Schropp, singer Lie Ning, Luisa L'Audace and actor Brix Schaumburg. The visit of the queer broadcaster Sven Lehmann should also be particularly interesting.
